50 Best Indian Restaurants near Cerritos

“A new addition to the Indian Food Scene in Cerritos - Artesia. The food is fantastic. I have visited now for dinner on multiple occasions and every time the food ordered was great. The menu selection is good . If you want authentic home cooked Punjabi fare, look no further.“

“I read good reviews so we thought would go and give a try. Well the family and I had fantastic meal. My husband had a goat fish and said was very flavorful and tasty. For the kids (8, 11)we got a mild Lamb Korma and Butter chicken. With these I confirmed that they would be mild enough for the kids. The butter chicken and lamb korma even though was ordered as mild (no spice at all to it) it had an absolutely amazing flavor to it- perfect for kids. Now I have had a lot of butter chicken and hands down this was the best I have ever had. The chicken fried rice we ordered was very tasty as well. Highlight for my husband was the beer from India. He said it was very nice and complimented the food nicely.“

“Great service. Decor was chic. Service on point, not rushed. Great place for a date.“

“The food was delicious! Especially the Tandoori Chicken! I also really enjoyed the Chicken Tiki Masala and the Cheese Naan.“

“I had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Curry Lounge. From the moment we walked in, the elegant décor and warm lighting created a perfect fine-dining atmosphere. The staff were incredibly attentive, polite, and made us feel truly valued throughout the evening.
The food was outstanding. The butter chicken was rich and creamy with perfectly balanced spices, and the lamb karahi was cooked to perfection – tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The garlic naan was fresh, soft, and complemented every dish perfectly.“

“Delicious Indian food that is not your usual restaurant fare. Friendly accommodating owners. Picked up with no issues from their Anaheim restaurant on Lincoln near Western.“

“I really like this place the food is authentic ambience is great and the people here are super friendly. They offer samples they have desserts and Traditional Indian drinks. I already tried them three times in last 15 days they’re always spot on so I highly recommend anybody who wants to try Indian food“

“Great service and great food! My family loves this place!! 👍🏻“

“Good restaurant I love the food“

“The curry and masala are amazing at the Fullerton location! I will be back this week for lunch. Oh, and ordering online was so easy :) thank you!!“

“Rajubhai and Truptiben are a powerful team!
They pulled off the impossible. They catered for 200 people in the mountains for multiple events including our wedding with a huge and extensive Gujarati menu. When thy were challenged to have the meal served at the table by plate the old fashioned way they took on this challenge and pulled it off like masters.

If you are looking for a company to cater any event where you want PERFECT Gujarati food then this is your team. The taste was flawless. Raju has a fantastic personality and is committed to customer satisfaction. Nothing less. He is a humble professional with an eye for perfection. They drove an entire day to get to the location with their trailers. Cooked in a massive tent outdoors and had zero failures.

The response and reactions to the food from the guests were overwhelming. He brought unique items to the menu that created an amazing twist to originals. Super creative!

Raju’s food tasted like it was made by your own Ba. That perfect flavor nobody else can perfect.“

“The curry and masala are amazing at the Fullerton location! I will be back this week for lunch. Oh, and ordering online was so easy :) thank you!!“

“The food is delicious and the service is very good! though I eat in, I always order more food to go to enjoy the next day.“

“They have really good food“

“The owner Sarfraz, was very hospitable and kept good company while waiting for food. We ordered the chicken biryani and Nihari, and both were so delicious! We ended our meal with the pink tea, which is a must, since it's not very common to see at Desi restaurants. Highly recommend eating here!“

“Amazing tasting food!
Vegetable Samoosa, Daal Tadhka Lentil, rice, and Naan were delicious. Prices were very good, and very nice clean table settings, plates, and inside. The outside, which looks misleading, is nothing like the clean interior. I highly recommend this restaurant!

For the record, for all other Indian restaurants: Take notice of how Daal Tadhka should be properly cooked and looked like, as was the case at this great restaurant.“

“This small Indian restaurant is not the best place to eat in. It gets hot inside and there is no air conditioning. However, it is perfect for takeout. The food is consistently delicious. The butter chicken, chicken tandoori, and chicken tikka masala are all full of flavor. The garlic naan is soft, warm, and really tasty.

Service is fast and efficient, so picking up your order is quick and easy. If you are looking for great Indian food to take home, this is a solid choice.“

“They have the best naan I’ve ever had! Delicious Indian food including vegetarian, meat and fish entrees, and a wide selection of dosa and biryanis. Very friendly staff and a cosy environment. Have enjoyed it every time we’ve eaten there.“

“This is our favorite spot for a late breakfast/brunch on the weekends. Order a couple of dosas or idlis and filter coffee.If you are still hungry, a fried rice and gobi Manchurian to share. Or some of their fritters. We love their outside patio and can easily spend an hour or two when we are here. It's the perfect lazy weekend experience for us! Love their rose milk and badam milk too.
Oh and I got to say this, I especially love their sambhar. I haven't noticed any veggies except for pearl onion, yet it is very finger licking good! Better than my homemade version with all the vegetables. This might be my favorite sambhar at a restaurant actually. Maybe ever! They have gotten the sambhar powder/masala perfectly.

Request to owner - If it's your own creation, please consider selling the sambhar powder. I would love to try and recreate the same flavours at home. Thank you!“

“Good south indian vegetarian food .free parking available vengatesh perumal idol like I am in Thirupathi or USA. There is outside seating as well. I can see the nice and big Aquarium where kids can enjoy their time and the capacity of the restaurant is around 150 seating. Filter coffee has taken my heart as it is very tasty I like for bhimas south indian vegetarian food“

“We were hoping this restaurant was going to be as good as their Fullerton location. Unfortunately, they have a ways to go. Admittedly, it is a high bar to cross. We started with Pani Puri. It was ok but not as good as I've had in Little India (Artesia). We also had Saag Paneer, which turned out to the best dish of the night, and Peshawari Chicken Karahi. The chicken dish was promised to be a bit spicy but turned out to be fairly mild unless one would eat the sliced jalapenos on top. The sauce was a bit sour and lacked depth. We asked for some spicy chutney which helped a bit. The nan, raita, and rice were perfect. My hope is that they send their Fullerton chefs in to give the chefs here a refresher course. Either that or we'll have to drive farther to Fullerton. Definitely will try again and order some different dishes. Our server was very friendly and helpful.“

“The cuisine was top notch and the service was even better. Pure and authentic Panjabi. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I come here once a month to stock up on Indian food. The frozen curries are enough for 2 or 3 meals each with rice. the samosas are great and the lentil soup or dal is great for protein! I'll also buy a masala Dosa or idli's to eat with a mango lassie before going home. It's a great deal!“

“This place is the best Indian food I’ve had in Southern California. The chicken tikka is so good and so are the samosas!“

“Best ethnic food we’ve had:). Thank you so much!!“

“Amazing food!! Faizan and Iris were so incredible. They gave such an amazing customer service, and went out of their way to make sure we had a good experience even though it was 1am!! Such a friendly place with in incredible food, thank you!!“

“We want to thank Hemal, Hetal, Saumil and the entire Rasraj team for being amazing caterers for our wedding day and reception! Hemal, Hetal, and Saumil worked with us months in advance to create an amazing all-day wedding menu that was unique, delicious, and incredibly creative. They walked us through numerous options and ideas during our tasting with our family and were extremely professional and on top of things on the big day.

The food was absolutely delicious! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the dishes, and we even had family from India commenting that some of the entrees were the best they had ever had. The fun presentations, like drinks and appetizers served pre-ceremony, were a big hit and added a special touch to the event.

Rasraj was fully prepared with all the equipment and supplies and arrived on time, ensuring that no one went hungry. The service was seamless, and their attention to detail was impressive. If you’re looking for amazing catering for your wedding or event, look no further than Rasraj! Thanks so much, Hemal, Hetal, Saumil and the Rasraj team!“

“Even though I don't have much background on Rajshtani cuisine but I loved the Maharaja Thalia. 3 different kinds of lentils were my most favorite. Not sure what their name was. Bit expensive at $30 per person but very well done though.“

“They have a daily rotating menu (check their website).

Take out is a better option for this place. They had one table. It's akin to a quick serve Chinese restaurant where they give you rice, garlic naan, plus the items of your choice.

They had 3 vegetarian curries and 3 meat curries when I went today. I was offered samples befoee deciding.

I chose the goat curry and the eggplant curry. Both the perfect amount of spicy and spiced properly.

The foods I tried today were excellent and I'll be back to try more in the future.“

“The food was tasty but there were some disappointments- we asked very clearly for very spicy and I made it clear that my wife is from Thailand and we are both accustomed to eating extremely spicy food. The food was not very spicy at all. I was disappointed by the lack of condiments and chutneys and also disappointed they brought so much bread at once and never offered fresh, so it was no longer warm and crispy by the time we finished. These are things I would overlook at a budget restaurant but this isn’t a budget restaurant. The food was good but I don’t think we’ll be back“

“VERY HOME TOUCH SEEET AND DELICIAS CHAT. WE HAD PAN SEV PURI DABELI AND BHEL. FAMILY OWENED AND OPERATED CHAT HOUSE. VERY TESTY. DO TRY ONCE AND U WILL FAN FOR EVER. NAIK FMLY.“

“This is a restaurant specialize in Southern Indian cuisine, which is 100% vegetarian but not vegan. Unassuming with friendly waitstaff, highly recommended. Some dishes can be quite spicy, please consult with the waiter about the degree of spiciness of a particular dish.“

“Excellent customer experience“

“I have been eating Indian food for about 40 years! this place is an AAA ➕. The spices are exactly right without being hot! The owner and chef cooked at high end restraunts before opening his own place. The chicken tikka is perfectly cooked every time. All bread and somosas are hand made from scratch. The price is VERY reasonable and they have a lunch special till 3pm that cant be beat“

“Sweet and friendly server , small restaurant. Several booths and a few small tables. Not fancy but comfortable.

We ordered 2 lamb dishes and one vegetarian, all were tasty. The korma was noted on other recommendations so we tried and were not disappointed.

The dessert was a small portion so I wished the kheer had a bit more serving for the cost.

I keep forgetting to take photos but other reviews include.

Beer and wine options but no cocktails fyi.

Extra note/ This is Definitely better than another Indian restaurant further down Second st amidst the sport bar district. ( Natraj) That one has small portions, less fresh, and less friendly service. They also upcharge / don't even include rice with their entrees.

We will visit“
